Market of business tourism in Uzbekistan as a business industry was recognized only in the last years and it is now in its infancy. However, it is today Uzbekistan is able to offer business travelers a unique combination of a high level of service and the national colors, complemented by rich cultural and historical resources.

At the same time, Uzbekistan has received additional measures to attract the leading tourist countries in the sphere of tourism in Uzbekistan and to ensure intensive development of business tourism in the country. Prerequisites of development of business tourism in Uzbekistan serve for summits in high ranks such as a three-day visit of the delegation headed by Acting General Director of MEDEF International Philippe Gautier, which also included representatives of 20 French companies.

The result of attention to the development of tourism in Uzbekistan is already there: the evaluation of the national chairman of the State Committee of the Republic of Uzbekistan for Tourism Development Sharapov Anvar, in the last three years the volume of tourist services in the country is growing annually by 17% The number of operating tourist organizations in the 2015 is more than 800 units in the country, including more than 400 hotels and 500 tourism companies, "- said in the report F.Rizaev(Table 2).

In these areas there are major hotels, business centers, historical and cultural attractions of the country. So in the year 2015 we found the city leaders on the 2 NC Uzbektourism was reorganized into the State Committee of the Republic of Uzbekistan for Tourism Development in accordance with the Resolution of the President of PP-2666 dated 02.12,

5 number of hotels - Tashkent 89, in Samarkand and Bukhara 80 hotels and 63 respectively. In 2015, the number of hotels and other accommodation facilities increased significantly, as in Tashkent and Tashkent region - 292, Samarkand and Samarkand the area - 90, Bukhara and Bukhara region - 80,Kashkadarya region -20. On the basis of this econometric analysis of the development of business tourism, we calculated the forecast of socio-economic indicators of the development of business tourism in Uzbekistan to Dynamics of changes in the flow of business travelers reveals that during business travelers visiting the Republic of Uzbekistan is 2799 people, an average per year, for the years people, for years people, for years people (Figure 1) ,9 30, ,2 13,33 62,5 133,3 6,25 9,12 38,7 19,43 194, ,1 283,3 28, ,4 431,8 43, ,2 657,4 65, ,9 101, Поток ино-ых посетителей (тыс. чел.)

6 organizations at the beginning of 2015 in the country exceeded 1000 units, including more than 550 hotel and 500 tourist companies 4. Despite the rise of investment attractiveness of Uzbekistan, the hotel business investment remains insufficient. The reasons for the unattractiveness of the hotel industry for domestic investors are the lack of information about the availability of the hotel business advantages and attractiveness of the business environment. It should be noted that the tourism rating of the country is directly related to attracting investments in this sector. The development of business tourism in the country could increase the flow of investment, receipt of currency due to the increase in exports of services, to create new jobs, improve quality of service. Conclusion A significant factor in the formation of investment attractiveness of tourism is the formation and operation in the territory of the Republic of FIEZ. In order to enhance the formation of a favorable investment climate, it pays great attention to the development of public utilities, tourist base and socio -economic infrastructure in the region. Considerable attention should be given to the development of natural resource protection programs in the region to maintain their ecological and pristine appeal. A new stage in the development of the tourism industry is the adoption of tourism development programs in Khorezm, Surkhandarya, Tashkent and Kashkadarya regions, which provided for the development of more than 260 million US dollars. The programs provides for the implementation of projects aimed at developing tourism infrastructure, including repair of roads leading to tourist inspection facilities, improving the engineering infrastructure of tourist centers, build hotels, restaurants, parks, bowling clubs and other objects of tourist entertainment. The program will provide a solid package of benefits for the project proponents. As can be seen, from the forecast of socio-economic indicators, we can safely make an unambiguous conclusion that the preconditions for the development of business tourism in Uzbekistan are there, and in the effective management on the basis of structural changes and measures in industry, business tourism can make a huge effect on the national economy. On the basis of the economic reality, expressed in a sharp increase of the economic factor in the implementation of business tourism in Uzbekistan, it can be determined that an essential and compulsory condition for its implementation at the regional level - the scientific study of development and promotion of business tourism industry of Uzbekistan as a cultural and historical center the world value.
